What a wonderful time with the group and the dogs. Did s'mores by the fire and splashed in the water park. They had inexpensive bots to rent for $20 for first hour and other activities. The snack bar had plenty of food to choose from and it all felt very safe and welcoming. Came with a big group and every one had a splendid time.

My friend and I rented kayaks this past weekend. We got there soon after they opened at 8am. Workers were friendly and helpful. It cost $20 for first hour and $10 for each additional. They incremented the additional hour for us. The lake was so peaceful. Hardly anyone was there besides a few people fishing. We will definitely go back.

We brought our Pathfinder (church youth ) group there to camp over the weekend. We thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. The bathroom and shower facilities were great. A group took a Saturday afternoon walk around part if the lake. The staff was very welcoming and accommodating. Playgrounds for the children. Boats, canoes, and kayaks for rent to take a spin around the lake. Wifi access most places.

A beautiful 100-acre lake off the Susquehanna that feeds Exelon Power’s Muddy Run Pumped Storage Facility, generating electricity for the surrounding area during peak demand periods. This park has a wide variety of offerings including great birding, a disc golf course, picnic areas, playgrounds, boat launches for water access, hiking trails, and an observatory. It is pretty far south in the county, but it is definitely worth the trip.

Me and the dog hiked 4.5 miles today while geocaching around the park. We'll be back again!

This is such a beautiful park. Great place to go for family fun. There is something for everyone. Sprinklers for children to get wet is free. Boats, kayaks and canoes available to rent. Great place for fishing. My husband only caught one little guy but we weren’t there early or very long. Some of the fellow fisherman went home with 5-6 fish large enough for meals. Dog friendly and plenty of grills and tables for picnic

Memorial weekend camping with the extended family. A yearly event that has grown in popularity and size each year. Plots are very affordable and the comforts of hot showers with a blend of both RV and outdoor tents this place is great. A lot of activities from frisbee golf, boat fishing on this huge lake or just fun hiking on the many trails. Snack bar for both adults and kids alike. Reservations are a must and any additional campers can be easily added per site rented. Been coming here since I was knee high to a grass hopper and still love it.

Overall this campground is very pleasant. The staff is very friendly and the price is very reasonable. Plenty of things to do inside the campground to include a 4 Mile hike around the lake. Keep in mind the campsites have not been updated for several years. Joe, every water and electric connection has to be shared between sites. I suggest you bring extra hoses and power cord extension. I wish the staff would have told me this when I booked. Campsite has a paved parking pad but it's at a very steep angle so make sure you bring plenty of blocks as you will need to build up so you can level your camper.
